Living next to the Mississippi River, I would like to have the Schwimmwagen. What other military vehicle comes with not just a shovel, but an oar. 8)

Schwimmwagens are sweet little cars, I saw a bunch of them at the Beltring war a peace show five years ago when I went. My favorite is this one http://www.vw166.com/classifieds/ketten ... r_sale.htm Kettengrad, I rode around in the back of one at the Knob creek machine gun shoot three or four years ago, the patton museum had a display of vehicles there and i was all over them. I was shooting the sh*t with one of the guys and he offered me a ride on it. Only if I could win the mega millions...Man!!
